For many years owners and operators of diagnostic ultrasound equipment have become accustomed to simply purchasing new transducers to replace those that have failed, due to damage or deterioration. Failures usually manifest in transducers in the form of shadows (image dropout), reduced sensitivity or excessive acoustic noise (speckle artifact). Replacing transducers can be a costly exercise whether they are purchased individually, or the ultrasould system service contract has been adjusted to include probe failure.
